people Leaving lines in your essey n speech just make it look long ! There is no point in leaving lines ! leaving spaces from the margin indicates a change in a paragraph ! Leaving lines in childish !
leaving lines makes the context look good . Presentation is important .It shows how serious the candidate is . The examiner doesn't know you personally , all he has is your written work . He is going to judge it in every way possible , and he has the complete right to do so

Presentation is not simply how neat some work is. It's about how effective you have been in getting your point understood. Paragraphs are vital for the effectiveness, and must be showed clearly. But leaving a line is not the only way for that. Not the ONLY way, that's all.

Depends on how much you exceeded. Max is 50. So if limits 300, u cn write max 350. Over that, examiner reduces your marks by one frick'n whole band i.e if he was gona give u an 8/10, u would get 6/10, so........

And to all others out thre. A* in Engy is a little too high an accomplishment, hmm? It means u must get something like 28/30 in both essay and speech and something. Aint tht a bit too much? Tht compy in p2 took away marks like crazy.

And paragraphing is always required. Good essay/speech has over 4 paras, baut less then some obnoxious number, like 10. But examiners not gonna cut many marks for bad presentation!!! If wht ya wrote is good, u can still gt an A*!
